This driving rhythmic piece is written to depict an exhilarating run down a whitewater river. Composer Ed Kiefer draws on his years of experience as a band director to provide a perfect choice for younger bands with small forces in the lower voices as those sections are mostly scored in unison. A welcome addition to the repertoire for young band festival performances.

Concert Band/Harmonie - Grade 2

SKU: BT.GOB-000747-140

Composed by Bruce Fraser. Score Only. Gobelin Music Publications #GOB 000747-140. Published by Gobelin Music Publications (BT.GOB-000747-140).

‘Christmas Colours’ is a palette consisting of several Christmas songs.
Bruce Fraser has mainly used the colours green (the colour of holly) and white (the colour of snow).
This composition begins with the chiming of festive bells - if you listen well, however, you can already hear short fragments from 'The Holly and the Ivy', whose entire melody is finally played, alternated with 'The Sussex Carol'. After this, the pace slows down and the stately 'See amid the Winter Snow' sounds, but parts from 'Jingle Bells' and 'Silent Night' can also be heard.
Then, after walking under 'The Holly and the Ivy' once again, the celebration of Christmas may begin!

Christmas Colours is een potpourri met allemaal verschillende kerstliedjes.
Bruce Fraser gebruikt vooral de kleuren groen van de 'holly' (hulst) en wit van de 'snow' (sneeuw).
Het werkje begint met feestelijke klokjes waar,als u goed luistert, fragmentjes van 'The Holly and the Ivy' tussendoor klinken. Uiteindelijk klinkt de hele melodie, afgewisseld met 'The Sussex Carol'.
Na de tempovertaging klinkt het statige 'See amid the winter snow',met fragmenten van 'Jingle Bells' en 'Silent Night'.
Tenslotte lopen we nog één keer onder 'The Holly and the Ivy' door en kan het Kerstfeest beginnen.

Concert Band - Grade 5

Solo for Piano and Band. Composed by George Gershwin. Arranged by Naoya Wada. Solo Concerts/Piano Solo and Band. Classic Arrangement. Full set. Molenaar Edition #013015100. Published by Molenaar Edition (ML.013015100).

George Gershwin used elements of classical music and jazz in this well known and loved work. The premiere of this piece was in Aeolian Hall in New York on February 12, 1924. Paul Whiteman led his big band, which was augmented with a string section, with the composer himself playing the piano solo. Gershwin improvised quite a lot during the concert as much of the music was yet to be written down on paper. The famous clarinet glissando in the opening was actually a joke from the clarinetist in the band, which Gershwin later wrote into the score.
